Coastal Fertility Specialists, which runs an in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) clinic in Savannah and four others in neighbouring South Carolina, said in a statement to NBC News that it was an "isolated event" and apologised for "an unprecedented error that resulted in an embryo transfer mix-up".

A 38-year-old American woman is suing a fertility clinic after the wrong embryo was implanted in her - and she then had to give up the baby to its biological parents after giving birth.
After handing the child over in a court, she told Sky's US partner network NBC News: "I walked in a mum with a child and a baby who loved me and was mine and was attached to me, and I walked out of the building with an empty stroller and they left with my son.".
Ms Murray voluntarily gave up custody of the then five-month-old boy to avoid a legal battle as part of a situation she said had left her "emotionally and physically broken".
